AGM

Well it is that time of year again - come present the committee with bouquets for doing what you think is right, and constructive feedback on what you think they could be doing better.

Consider joining the committee - no better way to get first hand knowledge of the joys and tribulations of running a folk club.

Consider volunteering to help on clubnights - extra willing hands with setup (arrive early), supper & packing up at the end of an evening are always welcome.

Here's what happens at our AGM:-

We accept the record of the previous AGM as true and accurate, after making any alterations necessary to make that so.

We accept a report from the President on the activities of the club over the last year, and get to question or comment on that activity as we feel necessary.

We accept a report from the Treasurer on the financial health of the club over the last year, and get to question or comment on that activity as we feel necessary.

We get to elect a new President / Vice President / Secretary / Treasurer (different roles/different people).

We get to elect up to 6 other club members form the governing Committee of the club for the coming year.

We get to discuss any other matter concerning the running of the club that any club member wishes to bring up for discussion.

To vote at the AGM you MUST be a ‘financial’ member of the Titirangi Folk Music Club. If you are not sure of your financial status in this respect then please check with our treasurer Leanne Appleby via our contacts page or Phone 813 0608.

Terril Marais

Stunning vocals - enthralling songs

Terril has been an avid music fan since childhood, with a number of her earliest memories being of singing songs. Playing her grandparents 45’s and 78 records was always a highlight of family trips and helped her early appreciation of old time country and folk music.

Her music now is an interesting amalgam of country, folk, blues and americana, with the odd bit of punk thrown in for interest. Described as sounding like a combination of Judith Durham, Linda Thompson, Dido, and Natalie Merchant, Terril explores an eclectic mix of music, with a few originals thrown in for good measure.

Terril’s first CD, entitled ‘Full Circle’, was prompted by feedback after an appearance at the Auckland festival some years ago, and is a collection of some of her favourite songs from around the world, including both traditional and contemporary material. Copies will be available on the night.

Admission$3.00

Under 18s Free.

The Club was conceived in 1965 when the Clancy Brothers didn't come and someone had the
astounding idea of having a sing-a-round thus transforming an audience into a folk group.
Formally established in 1966 we're still going strong.
